Review of the Acorn Insurance, Car Insurance:

no care for customers

1
if i could give zero stars i would. Acorn casually cancelled a policy that was taken out and paid for online. They left a retired lady to drive a car with no insurance. When I called and asked why they didn't call to ask for what ever documents they needed, a lady casually told me that they are in inbound call centre and can not make out going calls. POOR SERVICE. NO CARE FOR CUSTOMERS WHAT SO EVER. Reviewed on: 1st February 2019

Yet again seems to be a pattern emerging policy cancellation for speeding after 2 months be very wary of this company Reviewed on: 6th July 2024

Bunch of thieves!

Bunch of thieves! Do not insure a newly passed young driver. They make you pay 2 months insurance £361.07 up front ( at the time I thought this was odd) now I know why! My son had a black box fitted and had been insured for just over 2 weeks. This morning I had an email saying they were cancelling his insurance due to 1 instance of speeding . No warning, just cancelled straight away. Why not tell us what is acceptable and what is not, there must be some leeway? They said there’s... Reviewed on: 4th June 2024

This company, in one word, is unprofessional and does not deal with understanding and diplomacy. They added £25 extra because I was late in payment because my bank was frozen. I gave a reasonable explanation, but they only want money. I do not recommend Reviewed on: 13th January 2024

DON'T use this company IMO as they will look for any excuse in the book not to cover you in the event of an emergency. We had an issue with our oil boiler and when we needed help they told us, "sorry we don't cover oil boilers" and gave us 101 excuses not to help. They will take your money but in our experience look for ANY reason not to assist. Reviewed on: 8th January 2024

Ban This Company

5 months after the non fault claim, no settlement yet as they lied to me that I choose to not to claim under my comprehensive policy, ( I mean what a lie ) what would I do that for. I recorded all the calls so reported this to regulater authorities now. All they are interested are in making money through supplied Hire vehicle, the longer you have it, more money they will make from it on non fault claim. Several calls, emails but always misleading you purposely. ACORN PROPER CON... Reviewed on: 22nd November 2023
